Dear Inky:

I am glad you let us know that you will be away for a while. I thought only a few days ago: Inky will probably be gone for a few days, for the holidays (it happened before), but two weeks, that’s a long time, and I would have been concerned if you didn’t post this. So thank you!

Inky will be missed. New additions to The Best of Inky’s  will be missed. You are one of a kind, no one like you, so only you can fill the emptiness left here for the next couple of weeks.

If it is possible for you and if you feel like it during these two weeks, feel free to use your phone and drop in. It will be interesting to see what the fresh mountain air can do to the brilliant brain of Inky.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New year to you and your family!
